Am very interested by this announcement that Gates expects to shift defense spending priorities. Some big long-time pork projects (Star Wars, anybody?) may have to justify their continued existence, rather than relying on institutional momentum to keep them alive. Perhaps we can stop spending a billion per plane on magical high-tech and get some armor on the personnel transport in Iraq and Afghanistan...
